This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us tgrisham, sounds like a potential 'audiophile hell'...First thing that would happen is your spirit/ghost decides on an upgrade.Second, a potential 'system glitch'; something 'skips', a 'locking groove', 'stutters', 'hummmmm', power loss....name y... | |
Wife trouble Spouse likes my hobby, but demands simple functionality. OK....Simple system in 'common' living space: TV, receiver, DVD with CD function, and sat system. Still too many remotes for her tastes, but got it down to 2 for the most common uses....M... | |
Class D = Trash? Gregkohanmim, thanks for the 'go' at attitude correction...;)D tech is still in relative infancy as the classes go. Some are already embracing it, others repelled by it. 'Bout on par with all the other classes, given the rather small 'survey gro... | |
Ever sit down to listen and just say wow? garebear, perhaps...;)Hey, stingreen...if those two 'events' were concurrent, What Were You Playing at the time? (No, not 'with'...that's kinda obvious. I'll assume...)...probably one of those 'crescendo classics'....they're always hard to get on... | |
Let's talk Tweeters! ...arriving late, as usual...Hey, bgpowell...I've heard of and been to the Newform site. Been curious about their drivers, how do they sound to you vs. any other line source ribbon/planar of that design that you may have run into? Most of that t... | |
Let's talk Tweeters! ...something lovely to listen to while considering that...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7no9Ak2uSrQ | |
Let's talk Tweeters! Agreed...although I've got my preferences and invoked the name of a specific driver to clarify that, I don't want us to drift into a 'cable/interconnect' style pull-pull this vs. that arm wrestling match. And I'm infamous for off-topic drift....T... | |
Let's talk Tweeters! Hi, Eric, and back atcha'...*S*No real argument from this mortal about that....room integration is everyone's devil, and freq. response I beat over the head with active eq. And yes, it's unfair to try to get high mass to respond as quickly. So I... | |
Let's talk Tweeters! I use and enjoy a pair of ESS AMT's (the 'big black blocks) as a reference for high end hilarity. Fast and clean, and hard to find woofers to keep up with them. Other ribbons can be in that range but the only way to improve is to 'line source' t... | |
Magic Moments in listening Ignore the lame cartoon....find something else to look at...*S* | |
Magic Moments in listening One of the oldest albums I own and still in good condition, despite the miles and the various TT's it's spun on is the double one from The Pentangle.Folk, jazz, and trad. "Sweet Child" is usually the first thing that any new TT or cart gets welco... | |
Hey guys,time to can your table. All you need is love! Another variety of player was labeled a 'lifestyle' item by a wag....which I think is appropriate. It'll fly with some, flop with the rest, and certainly the latter (for the most part) in the confines of these forums...What struck me was the shap... | |
Separate conductors for separate frequency ranges in cables I'm sorry, but the skeptic in me calls this 'marketing BS'. With the lack of a crossover at the 'upstream end', I can't see electrons self-sorting themselves to any appreciable degree. Physics is physics at the end of the day. Blind listen if y... | |
Is anyone thinking about building Walsh drivers? Absolutely, misstl.I got to hear a pair of F's eons ago, and was enthralled by what I heard and how. I couldn't afford them, nor had a space that they could work their magic. That, and they were huge and I was too 'mobile' at the time to move th... | |
Is anyone thinking about building Walsh drivers? My fantasy:Offer you a beer before you hear them.If I can make you drop it, I'll know I've succeeded. ;) |
